So, I just bought a cheapo amazon cable that should come in today. Mine is not melting as far as I can tell, but I've kept things off for the most part to avoid any problems later. I just took my "good" cable out, pictures if you are interested

Well, it was *suppose* to come Wednesday... but I picked it up from Best Buy as soon as I saw that email :eek:) -- I ran quake champions at 4k 200%, which is 16k resolution I believe, was about 60-80 fps, so maybe I'll just stick to 100%
Had to pull one fan so it would fit, still running my...
Yeah, just a GPU upgrade for now so I can push 4K even higher. Not sure it’s worth it to upgrade every CPU generation, although I was going to get a 64 core before they changed the socket for no reason and quadrupled the price :p
I got the only one I could from Best Buy on release day. Which was a Gigabyte Gaming OC, I’d prefer a water cooled version, but I think I’d prefer an aftermarket solution as I’m not sure about the MSI tbh. But maybe if I can snag one and return what I got I can do that.
I pick the card up...
I'm going to buy it, since it doesn't make sense to throw away the old CPU, I'll have to build another system with it I suppose. My biggest concern is DDR prices, but I suppose I can run both with my existing ram until they come back to reasonable levels
64 Cores! Think of what task manager...
One time my family was in Mexico being chased by some guys in a truck with ak47's, they only escaped because their car had a higher speed limiter than the vehicle they were driving. If they were in a volvo they'd probably be dead
I'm still rocking my g500, had a g5 before that. On another computer I have that quakecon mouse from like 2013 or so, thought it might be an mx518, but nope a G400
The new mouse, G502 or whatever sucks because it is a "claw" grip, I returned that sucker in less than 5 minutes of use (hence why...
Remember destiny? That game that didn't do too well and consisted of AI standing around with tons of bullet sponge health? Let's make that game again and call it Anthem
Isn’t IBM the same company that fired its older employees and replaced them with Indian remote workers? They are trying to lower salaries is all by standardizing the practice of hiring without degrees
I was checking out car games a while back, and after being a bit disappointed with the car physics in project cars two, I started checking out forza videos, said cool I’ll pony up $60 for it. Tried to buy it, redirects me to the windows store, the app attempts to start, fails to connect or...
Last “free” game code I got showed as 59.99 on my Newegg invoice, screwing my credit card price protection. And when I had my system together after waiting on my cpu and entered the code, I got a nice “this code has expired” message and a big too bad so sad from nvidia support
I bet the coworkers at oculus will be a little jealous, he got out of id software at the right time, software companies are only as good as the personnel, everyone at id left for the most part
So I figured I’d throw this out there, I bought a pg27uq and have been using it for a couple months now, my old Pc still has the fw900
The fw900 blows the pg27uq out of the water when it comes to blacks and contrast
If modern GPU’s had DAC’s I’d probably use it on my new rig despite 4K hdr etc
With the new bios for ryzen 2 thread rippers I was able to bump my memory clocks up quite a bit
I was able to boot into windows at 3800mhz 16 18 18 38 and 3266mhz 14 14 14 34 where before I would insta-crash at those clocks, it looks like the 3800mhz isn't stable, but so far so good on 3266mhz...
I would say intel now realizes they are in trouble, so they are moving to fix that on the CPU/GPU front — and the fabled but never successful heterogeneous hybrid of the two
Something tells me a *slower* arm processors running windows UWP *slower* software will be... well slow -- And not supporting opengl is just microsoft being microsoft
Man, I had 20 bitcoins like 2 and half years ago but sold them... kicking myself on that one. What's easiest way to buy ripple?
My old wallet: 1GQtSjd3Tya3qm83JvGBi2jvwSETnhiVaD :'(
Edit: just saw you cant mine ripple, not so sure now
Mr Huang! Businesses are buying the cheaper consumer cards instead of our super expensive server cards and getting the same performance for dollar! -- BAN THEM, BAN THEM ALL! (Evil laugh while stroking Pascal)
Very cool, I accidently tried to ssh into my windows 10 box yesterday (had wrong ip) and it actually connected and gave me a cmd prompt from putty, I was like wtf didnt even know that was on -- even before enabling this feature
I feel more manly putting my entire body weight against my $1000 processor and $300 something motherboard for the foxconn socket to catch a tiny screw tbh :p
I think a problem is that people are taking engines that were designed to work with the older way of doing things and slapping on dx12 and vulkan when they probably need to be designed from the ground up as from the start -- and on top of that it's really hard to develop for the new api's as you...
I remember playing the mechwarrior 2 demo and mechwarrior 2 online with mplayer back in the day before quake 1 appeared, reactor online, sensors online, weapons online, all systems nominal brings back memories, should be fun
Edit: nostalgia :p
So I have my thread ripper build and my old fx build both running in different locations, I would totally upgrade the fx computer too, but those ddr4 prices man, think I blew $400 for 32gb on my thread ripper and would need at least 16gb minimum
I've always had great luck with logitech and mice RMA's, they always want to send replacement mice out without even asking for the old one, I got a g502 even though my g500 is doing great (just in case it dies) -- I also recently got the wireless g602 for my laptop and it's a nice mouse
